A primary function of art and thought is to liberate the individual from the tyranny of his culture in the environmental sense and to permit him to stand beyond it in an autonomy of perception and judgment.

It Is Not
Conscious of structure.
Conscious of order, law and discipline.
Conscious of those to whom is given respect.
Conscious of tradition and ideals...
And the effect this has on one's mindset.
Conscious of a faith that goes much deeper,
Than the faking of an acceptance of rituals.
Conscious of life,
And the limits of it lived.
Conscious are those,
Who are aware that this life...
Is much more than it is perceived,
It is!
Since it is not what we have been led to believe.
And a consciousness of those conscious of this,
Is what has been received.

Beauty is holistic
Be clean; you are conscious of skin.
Do yoga; you are conscious of body.
Do prnayama; you are conscious of energy.
Do meditation; you are conscious of mind.
Being conscious of it is strengthening of it.
Then which woman can resist you?

Release Me
(words & music by stevenson - miller)
Oh please release me, let me go
For I just dont love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again
I have found a new love dear
And I will always want her near
Her lips are warm while yours are cold
Oh release me, my darling let me go
Please release me, let me go
For I just dont love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again
Let me go, oh release me, my darling
Let me go

Is She Conscious
Is she conscious
Is she really wide awake?
Is she conscious
Of her beaatiful mistake?
Is she conscious
As she moves among the crowd?
Shes got thw world upon a piece of string
Shes got thw world upon a piece of string
Its so
He was ugly and she was beautiful
He was ugly and she was so
Is she conscious
Is she asleep or just afloat?
Is she conscious
Of the letter that she wrote?
Is she conscious
Of the music in her ears?
The queen of sheba could have shined her shoes
The queen of sheba could have shined her shoes
Its so
He was ugly and she was beautiful
He was ugly and she was so
Is she conscious
As she moves across the room?
Is she conscious
Of the weeping of the moon?
Is she conscious
As she leaves the door ajar?
Is she conscious
As she gets into the car?
I dont even wanna say her name
I dont even wanna say her name
Thats all
I wanna sing it from the toppest tower
I wanna sing it from the toppest tower
Thats all
The queen of sheba could have shined her shoes
The queen of sheba could have shined her shoes
Its so
He was ugly and she was beautiful
He was ugly and she was so
Is she conscious
Of the chauffeur as he drives?
Is she conscious
As the ambulance arrives?

Democracy
I have waited forcefully,
To occasionally snap at the tops of crowds,
Like a leader,
Too much audacity is required.
Kill them and manage a solution
For the poor and stone-broke,
For the underfed and malnourished;
Where are their inner beings?
Your strength has it, it has it,
What is more than tyranny?
A guess is sufficient.
Tyranny has no spectrum in our thought.

I'm very conscious that I want the dance audience to respond and respect what I'm doing, so I'm always very true to the music and I honour the music in the way I see it - I don't mess around with the music.

Music to Relax
Every beat, every tone
Music is rhythm of soul
Pop, Jazz and Country
Release all our worries
Music gives life a motion
Music controls every emotion
Music calms the mind
Music helps us – our way to find!
Music is inspiration
Music – full of imagination
Music has feelings
Music gives life a meaning
A Slow beat is silent word
A fast beat make you shrewd
Every moment its true worth
Music gives life – new birth
Music is melody
Music moves your body
Make people jump up and down
Spin in circles round and round
Music for celebration
Music for education
Music for entertainment
Music for refreshment
Listen to music to change your mood
Listen to music to keep you cool
Listen to music just to relax
Listen to music to make you sleep

Release
I see the world
feel the truth
which way to go
windowsill
i see the words
on a rocking horse of time
i see the birds in the rain
oh dear dad
can you see me now
i am myself
like you somehow
i'll ride the wave
where it takes me
i'll hold the pain
release me
oh dear dad
can you see me now
i am myself
like you somehow
i'll wait up in the dark
for you to speak to me
i'll open up
release me
release me
release me
release me

Music
Music
let me dance
infront of you
as you play.
Music
release everything in me
my sorrow
my joy
and even my love
as I sway my body
in your rhythm.
Music
make me adorable
when I dance
so that
every man will notice me
every man will like me
every man will want me.
Music
let me live with you
untill I can hear you
no more.

Release Me
I know that its time for a change
Mmm but when that change comes
Will you still feel the same?
How many times have I tried to turn this love around?
I dont want to give up
But baby its time I had two feet on the ground
Can you release me
Can you release me
Now that youre gone I cant help myself from wondering
Oh, if youd have come down from your high
Would weve been all right?
Release me
Can you release me
Chorus:
Come on baby, come on baby
You knew it was time to just let go
cause we want to be free
But somehow its just not that easy
Come on darlin, hear me darlin
cause youre a waste of time for me
Im trying to make you see
That baby youve just got to release me
Release me
Release me
Im not going back to you anymore
Finally my weakened heart is healing though very slow
So stop coming around my door
cause youre not gonna find
What youre looking for
(chorus)
What is this power youve got on me
What is this power, oh
What is it,what is it
(chorus)
Release me
Will you release me
Ah...release me
Will you release me

The ill effects of thought come about when we forget that thought is a function of our consciousness... an ability that we as human beings have. We are the producers of our own thinking.

Cruisin
Cruisin
Huey lewis feat. gwyneth paltrow
From the motion picture, duets
Baby lets go
Away from here
Dont be confused
The way is clear
And if you want it you got it forever
This is not a one-night stand, baby, so...
Let the music take your mind
Just release and you will find
Chorus:
Youre gonna fly away
Glad youre going my way
I love it when were cruisin together
Music is played for love
Cruisin it made for love
I love it when were cruisin together
Baby tonight
Belongs to us
Everything is right
Do what you must
And inch by inch we get closer and closer
To every little part of each other, ooh baby, yeah, so...
Let the music take your mind
Just release and you will find
Repeat chorus
Cruise with me baby
Ooh, ooh
Ohh, ooh
Oh baby lets cruise
Lets float, lets glide
Ohh lets open up and go inside
And if you want it you got it forever
I could just stay here beside ou and love you baby
So...
Let the music take your mind
Just release and you will find
Repeat chorus (2x)
(to fade)

Be Free
the natural tendency of the mind
is to chase the mind
be beyond the mind
be beyond the body
be conscious awareness
thoughts come, take them
for what they are
and release them
why chase
be in the moment
be awareness
let your conscious be
your consciousness
restrain your wandering mind
bring it back to your own house
bring it back within yourself
the wandering mind
runs in 10 directions
it needs to be pacified
and restrained
to do this is to be free
